On the living-room couch or at the beach, in the studio or on stage, the compact size allows the player complete influence in drawing out its sonorous voice.
The Solid Spruce top, with a rosette inlaid in a breathtaking abalone and wood motif, is paired with a special hand scalloped X-bracing pattern that projects a tonal palate of rich and full lows, warm and round mids and crisp, focused highs. The feel of its matte finished Okoume neck, crowned with a classic slotted headstock is nothing shy of perfect. The select Sapele back and sides are covered in a rich, high-gloss midnight blue of intense depth, harmonizing with the matte finish of the neck.

AN AMERICAN ORIGINAL
1883, Chicago. George Washburn begins a legacy of greatness with the first Washburn stringed instruments, bringing quality instruments priced for home musicians. In 1889, Washburn becomes the largest mandolin maker in America.
AGE OF INNOVATION
In the early 20th century Washburn continues to lead with quality guitars, banjos, and madolins. In 1912, Washburn releases the Lakeside Jumbo, the first dreadnought guitar. In 1930, Washburn merges with Tonk Brothers and releases the Solo Deluxe, the precursor of the auditorium style guitar and one of the best-selling guitars created.
AMPLIFIED AND ACOUSTIC
With the onset of the 1970's, Washburn releases the Wing series, our first electric models. The Wing series continues the Washburn standard by delivering a show quality instrument at a home artist price. In the 80’s and 90’s the Washburn Festival series revitalizes the art of acoustic performance, contributing to the rise of "unplugged" performances.
